i'm thinking of calling this little worldbuilding project of mine about heaven and hell "sinnerz"
"sinnerz"
if you have any other suggestions please tell me i suck at naming things
anyways here's some lore
LIMBO:
limbo is the place where souls go immediately after they die
it is the place that isn't hell nor heaven
it is a ends void that separates and surrounds the two locations
despite separating the two places there are no known measurements of limbo (though it is thought to be the size of the milky way galaxy)
(simplified diagram above)
as said before limbo is where souls go immediately after they die
there are no differing forms as the souls that come here take the form of the person who died in the moment they died
for instance if somebody had their head bitten off
their form in limbo would be of their original human's but with its head bitten off
if somebody were skinned alive their limbo form would be their original human body without any skin etc etc you get what i mean
there is a process in limbo
the souls form several lines that line up in front of a long desk with angels sitting behind the desk
said angels are called "peters", and are led by st. peter himself
(st peter shown above)
the peters decide who goes to heaven and who goes to hell based on the sins and good deeds a soul has commited
if a soul has done more sins than good deeds then it will go to hell
if a soul has done more good deeds than sins then it will go to heaven
a single sin can outweigh several good deeds if it is bad enough and a single good deed can outweigh several sins if it is good enough
here is the process below as a simple little diagram
once a soul has been decided its afterlife (hell or heaven) then it will get its ID
the ID shows:
- name of the sinner
- what their form will/does look like in the afterlife
- the sins they commited
- the date of death + cause of death
afterwards the soul will be teleported to its afterlife, in which it will immediately change into its new form depending on where it went
none of what i said probably made sense but it made sense to me and i'm glad i actually put it down somewhere that isn't just my head
